For Vatrano, no reason to move him for less than a first +.

Is it an overpay demand? Yes, yes it is, but he's not a rental, and we're more than happy to hang onto him until he is and test the market then.

isles hard core decline

That's reasonable. I thought he may fit with PIT but I'm not sure they would give up that much

Middleton would be more like a 1st and a B. He's not really available, but maybe a good candidate for next year's TDL.

Yeah, a 3rd and a 4th doesn’t even start the conversation. He’s playing top 4 minutes and signed for another year at a good cap hit. It would probably take a 1st to get the Wild to consider simply because they need him.

There is nothing that would make a Holtz for Graves trade make any sense...We are fine without Graves.

oil accept

Frank Vatrano had a personal-best-quality year last season (career highs in assists and points) and has improved on that this year (career high in goals and points already and guaranteed to exceed his career high in assists), including leading Anaheim in almost every offensive category. He's also signed for another season after this one. That's why we would ask for a huge return for him, like Brayden Yager and your 2024 second.

Wasn't sure what his value is. I don't really follow the wild much so I had no clue

Did you read somewhere that the Oilers had a need for a $5M+ goalie?? Because that's simply not true.
